Honor decided to slightly change the name of its popular line
A week ago, the image of the Honor 10X Pro smartphone appeared on the Web. While we can not say that it was real, but at least it is quite believable.
Potentially the cheapest 5G smartphone and the most powerful device in the class. Honor X10 – this is how the new product will be called
However, there is some correction: as it turned out, the Honor brand decided to slightly change the name of one of its most popular lines. Now Honor 10X is renamed to Honor X10, and Honor 10X Pro, respectively, in Honor X10 Pro. This is official information, as the president of the Chinese brand shared it.
The reason for renaming is unknown, but since the next generation will be “anniversary”, it is quite possible that this is the reason.
We can also now confidently say that upcoming smartphones will support 5G, which means that, as we expected, they will be based on the latest Kirin 820 SoC. There are also rumors about the Kirin 985 underlying the Honor X10 Pro but, as we know, the Kirin 985 is only slightly faster than the Kirin 820.
About prices for new items so far we have only to guess. The Honor 9X line, which recently surpassed the mark of 10 million units sold, last year started at $ 200, but it’s not a fact that new items will not go up in price. In any case, the Honor X10 has every chance of becoming at the same time the cheapest 5G smartphone on the market, and at the same time the most powerful device in the class, because the Kirin 820 is faster than the Snapdragon 765G.
